Thankyou and goodnight miss E

“I luff Daddy, he’s not too ’sgusting”….
Enough said.

A long overdue update

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

Is there anything more lovely than having your two year old boldly announce to the midwife that we are here to see the baby in Mummy’s tummy before up your top and giving your scarily protuberant 28.5 week belly a kiss?
Or seeing your own look of proud joy reflected in the face of your four [...]

A belated 2nd birthday post

Monday, June 29th, 2009

What kind of slack tart mother leaves it until almost two weeks after your birthday to write a far too brief milestone post?
The one who is currently enjoying your 6am starts to the day, nap fighting and insistence that I lie next to your de-sided cot big girl bed while you fall asleep, never mind [...]

And the dog goes moo

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

How do you refrain from laughing when your twenty two month old fearlessly pats a two tonne cow at a local agricultural show, cooing “Nice puppy” lovingly in said bovine’s ear?
And follows up with a “Hello Molly!!*” to a kangaroo at a wildlife park a few days later?
While it is clear that miss E loves [...]

22 months

“Thankyou Mummy” you whispered to me tonight as I tucked you into your cot , freed at last from the sleeping bag you have grown to so intensely dislike.
Thank you my darling girl.
For the giggles and milky snuggles that we enjoy first thing in the morning and last thing at night, inching ever closer to [...]

Ps and Qs

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Tell me, is there anything in this world much cuter than your not quite twenty month old using her manners in the appropriate context and in that gorgeous little oh so proper yet oh so singsong voice of the toddler?
It would appear that the delectable miss E has been learning a lot at daycare.  Surprisingly [...]

Odds and ends

Friday, December 5th, 2008

Am still here, dear people inside the computer, I just don’t have an awful lot to say right now.
A is my adorable angel thanks to her lovely current regime of sleeping from 8:30 pm to 8:30 am (!!). I’m fairly certain she is also undergoing a massive developmental leap, as now she is doing such [...]

Sweet sixteen

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

Cheeky gorgeous miss E, I’ve been meaning to write an update post on you for a while, slack tart Mummy that I am. Sorry about that my darling.
You are so completely and utterly delicious right now that I  vacillate between wanting to press pause so that I can savour this truly delightful period in your [...]

Shades of A and E

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

A is currently fixated with drawing and writing her name (forwards, and, rather intriguingly, backwards too). Happily this means that at the first sign of boredom all I have to do is whip out some paper and textas and away she goes.
We’ve had rainbows, spiders (!!), pictures of the family at the beach and a [...]

At one

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

You toddle toward me on increasingly steady feet, arms upraised simultaneously for balance and a cuddle. With an impish grin on your face, your bury your head into my lap for a recharge of love, exclaiming “ahhh” with delight as you refuel your sense of security and self. In the blink of an eye you [...]
